You make it so hard on yourself
But theres nobody else
That could ever understand
The feelings that you felt
I could hear you think about
All the time I was around
If you could only see me now
I'm right here looking down

So next time that you feel like crying
Next time you don't feel like trying
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you
In the morning you don't feel like rising
Next time you feel like compromising
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you

I know you won't forget
All the time we got to spend
Just because it's been a while
Doesn't mean that its the end
So right here and now
I'll swear you a vow
That I will always be with you
Whenever you feel down
Nothing ever will come between us
Now I'm holding on to the hand of Jesus

So next time that you feel like crying
Next time you don't feel like trying
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you
In the morning you don't feel like rising
Next time you feel like compromising
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you

I'll be right there looking down
Even when the shine don't shine
I'll be right there looking down
All along the winter night
I'll be right there looking down
With a smile on me face
I'll be right there with my arms open wide
Right here on Jesus' side

So next time that you feel like crying
Next time you don't feel like trying
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you
In the morning you don't feel like rising
Next time you feel like compromising
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you

So next time that you feel like crying
Next time you don't feel like trying
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you
In the morning you don't feel like rising
Next time you feel like compromising
Just remember I'll be right there
Smiling down on you

This is a song that my friend Daniel sent me over msn. He told me that it depicts where God stands when it comes down to us. We may feel like we want to quit and that he's not here but in truth he's always here. The Bible says He will NEVER leave us nor forsake us. So from where I stand this song is a constant reminded that no matter what we may be facing in the adventure of life whether it be getting over an ex that you loved (like I am) or dealing with your insecurities God is there and he always will be. In the midst of the storms of life its a comfort to know that I can turn to my creator and tell him all my troubles.

So for all those out there that feel like giving up do what my pastor says OK: "Don't give up. Look up!" When the storms of life are slapping you around and there is no where else to go and no one else to turn to remember that there is a God that will never turn his back on you.
